Alex Jordan is an old musical soul in a young man’s body.  He approaches things with the fresh perspective of a relative newcomer, but he’s been playing so long—like since he could hold on to an instrument—that he has a fully rounded sense of the history of rock and its roots.  And that’s why The Subtle Exhibitionist presents such a wide range of musical flavors, cooked up with exquisite taste.  Lots of it is brand new, but often you have the oddest feeling that it’s an album you’ve had forever.  &nbsp

Greg Anton (drums) and Scott Guberman (keyboards) met a few years back when Scott relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area.

The music is flowing, but the experience is suffering.
